Artificial clouds were produced in a
vineyard at PaRny, on the Franco Ger
man frontier one night last month for
the protection Of the vines from frost.
The signal was given to ignite LIQUID
tar, which had been poured into tin
boxes and pieces Of solid tar which had
been placed in the ground near the
vines. Large clouds Of smoke quickly
enveloped the vineyard. The fires Iast-
ed for about two hours, but the smoke
did not clear of till considerable time
after The object Of the experiment was
completely gained, as not one young
shoot was destroyed by the frost.

sTATEMENT ABOUT STA TEMENTS.
The ADVANCE, like others at this
time of the year, is sending out Estate
ments" of account. TO some who are
prompt pay and not far behind, it is a
mere ''statement" which they are ex-
pected to respond to at once, or as
soon as convenient. To others it is q
''dHn' and means business.
Our readers will remember, by lit.
tie effort, that it is now about eigh-
teen months since we have called on
them in this way to pay up. The past
year was not good one for crops, bus
mess was not brisk, and we gave our
patrons Il long rest. Generally they
have ''rested," and, financially speak
ing, have passed on the other side-of
the street. No year since We have
published the ADVANCE have We re-
ceived 80 little on subscription. At
the worst of the grasshopper period,
we could show $50 ard 800 month
on subscription during several of the
winter months. Now it is not a tenth
part Of it.
We have several thousand dollars on
our books uncollected. This is nearly
all in small bills and the bulk OF it can
be paid 1T once without the parties
feeling it. Therefore pay it. Don't
believe that story about MILLER" hav-
ing got rich and therefore able to pup
lish paper without pay. Nor that
other story of few chronic Office
seekers that Miller has ''deserted the
people. ~ In short, don't believe any
of them" stories, only that the AD-
VANCE is the best county paper out
west, and that it is a fast friend of the
people, and that 1t must have money,
and that you must pay up.
